Into the Wind

Well executed, slow paced, great shots. A summer meditation. I really enjoyed the daughter-father relationship. A simple story , well told. The scenes with live music (Bitamina) makes me wanna go to the Hel Peninsula.

I really liked this romance. It was not your typical clichéd rich private school girl falls for rugged working not-rich boy. There were some deeper character developments going on that added more depth to the story. The movie held my interest (even though I had to watch in subtitles), and just had this lovely energy about it. The kite surfers were a fun group of friends with so much happy, welcoming energy. This is a unique, fresh, and fun Polish movie. I loved it.

The movie breathes fresh air into Streaming TV. Filmed in very picturesque locations, the movie pulls you into the a very real story that is not a rehash of other romantic movies.

The supporting actors and relaxed flow of the movie take you all the way to the upbeat ending of the over 1hr 40 min movie. This movie follow a long line of recent releases from Poland, and has a very personal and at the same time personable feel for the characters.

I also enjoy the contrast between the fast paces busy scenes and the slower dramatic elements that put you right into the emotional place that the director seemed to be aiming for.

I look forward to seeing more movies from Poland and from this director on streaming in the near future.

I am not Polish, but I love to death Polish movies. This is not Andrzej Wajda, but it never intended to be a Wajda movie (not that I didn't enjoy this as much as The Maids of Wilko, or Ashes and Diamonds - in this order). The actors play very well, but the truth is that Sonia amazed me as she played her depressed character role very convincing, and that is not something you see every day. I enjoyed every second and every scene of it. I don't want to rediscover myself and the world in a movie, but to see real feelings on the screen, and no nonsense. It's a nice story, amazingly well played. I watch it every time I feel a little bit depressed. It helps a lot :) Thank you!

From the very first shot I know I'm getting a visual treat. Unique shots of water sports elevate the movie that's otherwise unremarkable.

Unfortunately almost anything that happens inside the hotel is blah. The main character is unlikeable and the romance is too insta but it's a common trope for a coming-of-age movie.

The music choice can be very cheesy at times but feels authentic to the setting, the ending is very Hollywood where everything is wrapped up nicely with a bow. Not a bad choice if you want a simple crowd-pleaser.
